Not a problem, u/DatExplanation summed it up pretty well, but the primary reason is that Islam is and should be accessible to every individual, nobody else is "more religious" than anybody else, except through the goodness of the heart and this is something only God can judge. Of courses,there are people who know more than others,. Some of whom who have the right to issue rulings, but even then they must be based on Quran and authentic hadith. But overall, no Muslim is better than another and no Muslim should think himself better than any other person, regardless of religion. How good or bad we are is for Allah to decide, not another human.

Salaam u alaikum, which literally means peace be on to you, good to hear that your being open minded, when we don't have that, the world is a horrible place. Also could you post that link please, I live in the Uk, so I'm intrigued.

Anyway, to answer your question Islam is fundamentally the belief that God created us, we have been created to worship him. Our definition of God can be found at quran.com/112. There is a day of judgment at the end of this worldly life, where there is a scale to weigh out our good deeds and bad deeds. If the good outweighs the bad we go to heaven. If the bad outweighs the good, we are punished in he'll till we have served our time. This afterlife is eternal. How do we know what is good and bad, we are told in the Quran, the verbatim word of God. God also sent.human examples to demonstrate and explain good and bad. The first was Adam, the last was Muhammad and everybody in between most of whom are mentioned in the Biblical narrative, peace be upon all of them. Some of these messengers brought books to be passed on as a written documentation of right and wrong. Muhammad, peace be upon him and all the prophets, being the final messenger brought a book that God himself swore to protect and preserve till the day of judgement. This book, the Quran is the underlying authority for everything in Islam. The sayings, actions and approval of the prophet are documented in hadith. Although, these are not 100% accurate , as only the quran is 100% accurate, there are strict criteria to define what is hadith and what isn't.Hence, they are also used to derive rules from. This rule set is known as the Shari'a. Each rule in the Shari'a takes both the Quran and Hadith into account. So both sources must be studied as a whole when featuring rulings as opposed to reading a solitary verse or text and saying this is the rule.

That pretty much lays out the fundamental, all the actions we do as Muslims comes from this fundamental.

Yeah I'm really looking forward to it inshaAllah , tbh I see the course as my vacation, not really that bothered about sights etc, truth be told I have an extra days stay and I am looking for a place to stay for the extra night so I was wondering if anybody here would be able to help me out or knew anybody who could, I'm flying out of DFW.

Apologies, Yes of course, they have the right to practice their religion freely and yes they can proselytize, as a Muslim, I enjoy engaging with preachers, for I have firm belief that Islam is the truth.

But if they falsely proselytize.about Islam, this is something that should be condemned

In a small response, a quick example, look at the prophet (pbuh), his next door neighbour when he died was Jewish, Jews lived freely in Medina, The Prophet only asked them to leave when they committed treason,

A piece of advice, encourage people to look at the prophet, not Muslims today, that way we all have a better idea of what Islam teaches
